13. Teacher: But Not Student Rating of the Pedagogic and Social Climate in School Predicts Adolescents' Academic Aspirations

Author

Almroth, Melody, László, Krisztina D., Kosidou, Kyriaki, and Galanti, Maria Rosaria

Abstract

Background: High academic aspirations relate to higher achievement and better mental health, but less is known about how these aspirations are formed in relation to the educational context. Objective: This study aims to investigate the relationship between overall school climate, with particular concern for the dimensions of school level expectations and support as rated by both teachers and students and adolescent academic aspirations. Methods: Multilevel logistic models for repeated measures were used in order to investigate the relationship between measures of school climate and adolescents' academic aspirations. Three annual waves of questionnaire data were used to obtain aggregated teacher- and student-rating of school climate, including specific dimensions of teacher expectations and support. Results: Positive teacher-rated overall school climate was associated with an increased odds of adolescents aiming at a university education rather than at a lower one (adjusted OR 1.36, 95% CI 1.14-1.63 for the intermediate tertile; OR 1.39, 95% CI 1.14-1.70 for the highest tertile). A similar trend was found for the teacher-rated measures of expectations and student focus, but not for any of the student-rated school climate measures. Conclusion: A positive school climate rated by teachers appears to predict adolescents' university aspirations. Future research should clarify which aspects of the school climate may influence adolescent academic aspirations from the students' perspective.

Abstract

Background and Aims Increasing evidence suggests that some reproductive factors/hazards are associated with a future risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) in women. While major (non-perinatal) depression has consistently been associated with CVD, the long-term risk of CVD after perinatal depression (PND) is largely unknown. Methods A nationwide population-based matched cohort study involving 55 539 women diagnosed with PND during 2001–14 in Sweden and 545 567 unaffected women individually matched on age and year of conception/delivery was conducted. All women were followed up to 2020. Perinatal depression and CVD were identified from Swedish national health registers. Using multivariable Cox models, hazard ratios (HR) of any and type-specific CVD according to PND were estimated. Results The mean age at the PND diagnosis was 30.8 [standard deviation (SD) 5.6] years. During the follow-up of up to 20 years (mean 10.4, SD 3.6), 3533 (6.4%) women with PND (expected number 2077) and 20 202 (3.7%) unaffected women developed CVD. Compared with matched unaffected women, women with PND had a 36% higher risk of developing CVD [adjusted HR = 1.36, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.31–1.42], while compared with their sisters, women with PND had a 20% higher risk of CVD (adjusted HR = 1.20, 95% CI 1.07–1.34). The results were most pronounced in women without a history of psychiatric disorder (P for interaction <.001). The association was observed for all CVD subtypes, with the highest HR in the case of hypertensive disease (HR = 1.50, 95% CI: 1.41–1.60), ischaemic heart disease (HR = 1.37, 95% CI: 1.13–1.65), and heart failure (HR 1.36, 95% CI: 1.06–1.74). Conclusions Women with PND are at higher risk of CVD in middle adulthood. Reproductive history, including PND, should be considered in CVD risk assessments of women. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
